For Eve Pearl lovers, I can't say enough about her book: it's a gem!  I love her philosophy about using makeup instead of plastic surgery.

 

So far, I have tried virtually all of her TAGs and collected some amazing "forever" brushes: I love the dual ended brushes particularly.

 

Her basic eye shadow collection is a must. (It's the one with ivory, light pink, gold, Brown, green and black.  It goes on wet or dry and is an absolute workhorse. You may wonder about the green, but it's a deep forest green.  Some could wear it on its own and it would be beautiful, but it's fantastic blended with other shadows in the collection. Ahhh-blending! I think I have owned this for at least two years, and I still find new combinations. You can make the shadows as dark or as light as you want. I even use the brown as a contour to narrow my nose.( I use a light touch and dab it on the back of my hand to make sure I don't overdo it.)

 

Her website is so worth your time for anybody-no matter what brands you are using.

 

So far, the only thing that has not worked for me is her salmon concealer. I actually need a much darker shade-something that almost looks orange Graftopian, or LA Looks) I tipple it with my ring finger, then apply her lighter concealer and tipple either with my finger or sponge.....and then a dusting of loose powder goes over that.

 

I love her lipsticks: they have staying power.

 

I'm excited to see what she's bringing this time!  She may already have these-I haven't been on her site in awhile, but I would love some more cream rouge options. I have one of her compacts with cream highlighter, a bronzer and a rouge-but I want more!

I am 46 and have never tried this brand. How does it work for skin in mid 40s very excited about trying it. Does it do good going over wrinkles.

Hi Mandy! Her foundations work for all skin types and they are full coverage. I love her split pan foundation, but I find her liquid works better for my older skin. (I'm 56). That's a matter of preference I think.

 

To lessen the appearance of fine lines, a silicone primer helps tremendously and I don't always use one (some of my foundations have it built in), but I do like Eve's primer.  I still moisturize: for a woman my age, that's mandatory!) but I think it helps and a little goes a long way.

Her primer is one of the best that I have tried. Not much is needed and it gives nice hydration. In addition, no matter what foundation that I use it doesn't pill. It is pricey but the 2 oz. tube lasts a very long time.

Any clues about what the TSV will contain?  I love Eve Pearl.  Purchased her first TSV on auto delivery and will continue to buy anything she offers.

 

I picked up the primer a few months ago because it is silicone free and I love it.  I use such a small amount - less that pea sized and it's a great moisturizer too.  So for the price, when I look at it as a primer plus a moisturizer plus my morning skincare (after Paula's Choice BHA) it's not so expensive to me for the size.  

 

Her lipsticks are incredible and long wearing (I love the Rose from the first kit) and her blushes are the best around.  I remember a video Wayne Dass put together on what is *actually* in his makeup bag when he goes on sets, and he had around 6 Eve Pearl blushes in his kit Smiley Happy  Good stuff and never bright or clownish.

@Mrsq2022 do you mean this primer? If so, not sure why you think it is silicone free? I highlighted the silicone in the ingredients according to Eve Pearls' website.
